I mostly agree with your write-up here. That said, I do think that systemd does want to eliminate SUID. I also think they want to absorb most of the low level system plumbing.
There are other applications that use suid (like newuidmap). And there are programs that use capabilities (like ping). I’m pretty sure that this logic will be used to justify assimilating those applications too. But I’m sure that the crowd will cheer them on as if they did something revolutionary.
